Hide CaptionShow CaptionThis room has many elements that complement each other but they need an overlying theme to bring the entire room together.
Homeowners Brad and Mary Stompe and their son, Dylan, have many outdoor-themed items in their living room but no unifying style. Designer Karen McAloon turns their bland, woodsy room into a charming English-like lodge using items they already have. She plays up their fireplace with a new paint treatment and mantel, adds an inexpensive lead treatment to the windows, chooses warm colors and incorporates a new furniture arrangement to transform the room.
